 How fragments turn into a release:
 
 - At release time, `bun run changelog:build` (and `bun run changelog:prerelease-notes`) pipes every pending fragment through `claude -p` to merge related items, drop noise, and rewrite into a clean user-facing release body. Write fragments as raw, informative notes — don't worry about polished prose, deduping across PRs, or line-by-line phrasing. The polish step handles all of that.
-- The polish step treats pending fragments as the final release outcome, not prerelease history. If a feature is added and then renamed or fixed before the stable cut, ship the final feature bullet instead of separate prerelease-only breaking/fix entries.
 - `internal` fragments stay in `CHANGELOG.md` (inside a collapsed `<details>` block) but are dropped from the GitHub release notes entirely.
 - The polished `CHANGELOG.md` and `release/release-notes.md` are committed and reviewed before tagging — edit the Markdown by hand if Claude misses something.
 
 Prerelease notes:
 
 - prerelease tags like `v0.11.3-beta.1` and `v0.11.3-rc.1` reuse the current pending fragments to generate `release/prerelease-notes.md`
-- existing prerelease notes are a reviewed baseline; later prerelease runs should replace stale beta/RC wording with the current outcome instead of appending fix churn
 - prerelease note generation does not consume fragments and does not update `CHANGELOG.md` or `docs-site/changelog.md`
 - the final stable release is the point where `bun run changelog:build` consumes fragments into the stable changelog and release notes

 ### Fixed
 
-- **macOS Overlay:** Significantly improved overlay focus and stability: the overlay hides when mpv loses focus or is minimized, stays stable through transient window-tracking misses, remains correctly layered during stats mouse passthrough, and opens over fullscreen mpv without switching Spaces. Passthrough is fixed so mpv controls stay clickable before hovering a subtitle bar. The overlay also stays stable when clicking from the overlay back into mpv. Background tracking overhead is reduced while mpv is stably focused.
-
-- **Linux/Hyprland Overlay:** Overlay placement refreshes after leaving mpv fullscreen so the visible overlay stays aligned to the player. The visible overlay remains stacked above mpv after mpv regains focus from clicks, and is suspended while the in-player stats window is open.
-
-- **Jellyfin Playback:** Resolved a wide range of Jellyfin discovery issues: the active item is no longer reloaded during startup, paused mpv is no longer misreported as playing, startup unpause no longer repeats after a manual pause or `y-t` toggle, duplicate ready signals no longer re-show the overlay, and long-lived sidebar ffmpeg extractors no longer run against stream URLs. Discovery now correctly handles delayed Japanese subtitle selection and prevents later-loading foreign tracks from stealing the active Japanese track.
-
-- **Jellyfin Subtitles:** Improved subtitle timing by preferring default embedded streams over external sidecars, stripping Jellyfin's server-selected stream from playback URLs, suppressing mpv auto-selection while SubMiner stages managed tracks, and automatically correcting clear Japanese-vs-English cue timeline offsets. Per-stream subtitle delay shifts are restored on load. Track selection now tolerates transient `track-list` read failures and numeric string track IDs on Linux.
-
-- **Jellyfin Overlay:** The visible subtitle overlay now shows automatically during Jellyfin playback so `subtitleStyle` appearance applies. The bundled mpv plugin is injected when SubMiner auto-launches mpv for Jellyfin so mpv-side keybindings work without overlay focus. The `y-t` overlay toggle is reliable and remains sticky across stream redirects. Passive Linux/Hyprland overlay shows no longer steal keyboard focus from mpv.
-
-- **Jellyfin Remote Progress:** Fixed progress sync for mpv/SubMiner seek jumps, stopped sessions, startup path changes, and Linux websocket reconnect windows. Play and Resume are now distinct: Play starts from the beginning while Resume starts at the saved position. Final progress reports use SubMiner's last known position when mpv resets during stop. Discovery resume correctly handles `StartPositionTicks: 0` for items with saved progress.
-
-- **Jellyfin Identity:** Cast device identity is now derived from the OS hostname. Multiple SubMiner installs no longer share the same remote-session identity, and SubMiner always reports itself as the client regardless of legacy configurable identity fields.
-
-- **Jellyfin Tray:** The discovery tray checkbox stays in sync on Linux after tray, CLI, or startup remote-session changes. Stale discovery sessions restart automatically when the server no longer lists the SubMiner cast target. Library discovery works correctly when the app log level is set above info.
+- **macOS Overlay:** Significantly improved overlay focus and stability: the overlay now hides when mpv loses focus or is minimized, stays stable through transient window-tracking misses, remains correctly layered during stats mouse passthrough, and opens over fullscreen mpv without switching Spaces. Passthrough is fixed so mpv controls stay clickable before hovering a subtitle bar. Background tracking overhead is reduced while mpv is stably focused.

 - **AniList Progress:** Progress threshold checks now use fresh playback position data so updates fire correctly when playback reaches or skips past the watched threshold. Season-specific results are preferred for multi-season files, and a clear message is shown when the matched season is not in Planning or Watching status.
 
-- **Anki:** Sentence-audio padding is now opt-in by default. When padding is configured, animated AVIF freeze-frame duration is correctly aligned to the word audio length without double-counting sentence padding. Multi-line sentence mining stays aligned when repeated subtitle text appears in the selected history range. Manual clipboard card updates from YouTube playback now use mpv's resolved stream URLs for generated audio and images.
-
-- **YouTube:** Primary subtitles are now downloaded to temporary local files so the primary bar and sidebar read the same source, with cleanup on reload and quit. False subtitle load failure notifications are suppressed after SubMiner confirms the selected track loaded. Launcher-managed playback commands create the tray icon even when attaching to an already-running process, and app-owned YouTube playback no longer lets the mpv plugin start a second SubMiner instance.
-
 - **Character Dictionary:** Cached media matches are reused when loading a title with an existing snapshot, avoiding redundant AniList search requests on repeat visits.
 
-- **Updater:** Update checks are more stable across platforms: Linux uses GitHub release metadata instead of the native Electron updater; `subminer -u` can update independently of the tray app; macOS update dialogs reliably appear in the foreground; builds that cannot apply native updates show a manual-install message instead of a restart prompt; and Windows retains the native NSIS update path while routing updater HTTP through the main process. GitHub release lookups avoid Electron networking on Linux and macOS. Set `updates.channel` to `"prerelease"` to receive beta and RC builds.

GitHub release lookups now avoid Electron networking on Linux and macOS.
 
-- **Setup - macOS:** First-run setup now recognizes existing `subminer` installs in Homebrew or user PATH directories, and manual setup avoids writing into Homebrew-owned paths. `subminer app --setup` opens the setup flow even when SubMiner is already running in the background. The standalone setup app quits after completing first-run setup, and `subminer settings` exits cleanly when the window is closed.

-- **Tray App:** Fixed several lifecycle issues with tray-launched Yomitan settings: the tray stays running when settings are closed; settings loading no longer blocks other tray actions; the settings window uses a close-only menu to prevent accidentally quitting the tray app; an in-page close button is available on Hyprland where native window controls are unavailable; the embedded popup preview is disabled to prevent renderer hangs during sidebar navigation; extension refreshes at startup are serialized to prevent race conditions; and the session help modal can close correctly without mpv running.

-- **Shortcuts:** Native mpv menu shortcuts are disabled during managed macOS playback so configured SubMiner shortcuts work while mpv has focus. Session shortcuts including `stats.markWatchedKey` are correctly wired through mpv. The visible overlay receives focus when entering multi-line copy/mine selection so number keys work on macOS and Windows.
+- **macOS Shortcuts:** Native mpv menu shortcuts are disabled during managed macOS playback so configured SubMiner shortcuts work while mpv has focus. Session shortcuts including `stats.markWatchedKey` are now correctly wired through mpv.

-- **Stats:** In-player stats layering is fixed so delete confirmations, overlay modals, and update-check dialogs appear above the stats window. Jellyfin playback stats are grouped under item metadata instead of stream URLs, so watched episodes merge with matching local library titles and display clean names.
+- **WebSocket:** The subtitle WebSocket is now plain-text only; annotation spans and token metadata are sent exclusively on the annotation WebSocket.
 
-- **Sidebar:** Yomitan lookup popups opened from the subtitle sidebar now correctly pause playback when popup auto-pause is enabled.
-
-- **Discord Rich Presence:** Presence no longer falls back to Jellyfin stream URLs; Jellyfin playback titles are primed before loading tokenized streams so presence shows the show/episode title.
-
-- **WebSocket:** The regular subtitle WebSocket now sends plain text only; annotation spans and token metadata are sent exclusively on the annotation WebSocket.
+- **Jellyfin:** Fixed the setup popup login path on Windows using an IPC bridge, with immediate login progress feedback and a timeout for unreachable server attempts.
 
 - **Windows:** Startup failures now show a native error dialog and write fatal details to the app log instead of exiting silently.
 
 - **Yomitan:** Fixed Yomitan popups not opening when overlay startup races the Yomitan extension load.
 
-- **Settings:** Search now works across all categories, narrows correctly on multi-word terms, and hides settings with dedicated editors. Live saves for subtitle CSS declarations apply immediately to open overlays. Legacy subtitle appearance options and hover token colors are automatically migrated into `subtitleStyle.css`. The note-fields note type picker defaults to the configured Anki deck's note type, then `Kiku`, then `Lapis`, leaving it blank for manual selection otherwise. User config files are preserved during legacy config compatibility handling. The generated example config uses the same CSS declaration paths written by the Settings window.
